/ knows what it may do, and that the shortness
of corn and wheat crops must sooner or later
affect traffic. Numerous char gcs in the dircc-
! ton Of lower rates are also announced from the
West, indicating that the Interstate act is
gradually producing the effect desired by its
supporters, and not desired by the railroads.
The strength of the market. considering these
circumstances, is justly deemed noteworthy,
but it is not the sort Of strength that comes
from general public buying.
Last year the iron output increased in Nov
cmbcr and also in December This year the
Pitt sburg statement makes the weekly capacity
of furnaces in blast f,OS7 tons less than ii was
November 1, though still 1916 more than it
was n wear ago. The bottom fact in the bust
ness is that orders had been accepted a year
AGO for steel rails enough to usc up over
40 900 tons Of pig iron weekly, whereas the
orders so far booked for next year arc said to be
12s. 900 tons in ALL about hall on deferred con-
tracts. There have been sales of $4,000 tons
during the past week and it is maintained that
500 is the lowest price taken but no definite
change appears as yet in the outlook. The
wool market is confidently said to be at bottom,
but the trade in goods has not enlarged. Cot
ton is stronger, although the quantity that
has left the plantations already in two and one
half months is 62S,OOO bales more than had
left to the same date last year, while stocks
are now 81 900 bales larger, and exports last
week were 30 900 bales less than for the same
time last year
The year which is drawing near a close has
been one of unprecedented business, but not Of
particularly large profits. The later returns
Of clcarings have indicated that the volume Of
business is now falling bchind'Iast years, not
only at New York, but also at Boston, Phila-
dcpha, Baltimore and Ncw-Orlcans, partly
because Of the abatement Of speculation, but
still more, perhaps because the volume of
trading earlier in the season was unusually
heavy Fear Of tariff changes doubtless con-
tributes some Of the recent shrinkagc, but most
people do not seem to expect President Glove
lands recommendations to be adopted by Con-

All classes Of society have met in the local
habitations in democratic spirit, and the
familiar relations of the members
have done something to break down
barriers between classes and to make
Conservatives popular among working
people. The league has become so formidable
a forco in politics that the Liberals have been
compelled to organize one in opposition to it.
The Constitution pledges the Primrose knights
and danes to promote the maintenance Of re-
ligion. the Constitution Of the realm and the
imperial asccndcncy of Great Britain. Tins IS
a brief and impressive formula which binds the
league together in all its habitations. "A SINH

ENGLISH And AMERICAN LEAG UES.

The Republican League is "a distlnCtiycly
American organization. 1t is not modelled
after either the Primrose or the Liberal League
in England, but is adapted to the conditions Of
political activity in the United States. At the
same time it is designed, in general way, to
supplement the work Of the regular ward and
town associations Of the Republican party very
much as the two English Leagues are employed
in connection with the Conservative and LIB
cral parties. 1t will serve useful purpose,
therefore, to compare the bases OF organization
Of the American and English Leagues and TO
outline the results accomplished by the oldest
of the three assOcatiOnS-thc Primrose League.
Tho Republican League is naturally organ
lied on the federal basis: a confederation Of
State leagues, with a National Congress and
Executive Administration. The Republican
League Of twenty members is the unit; each
State league is selfgovcrning and the Ma
tional Congress is representative assembly.
The scheme Of organization is simple and Ic
publican in principle and well adapted for
effective work in the party. The Primrose
League comprises hundreds of habitations.
meeting in every important town IN England,
the members being known as knights. danes
work Of political organization the meetings
being attended by almost as many women as
men. A central headquarters with an executive
committee and officers brings the habitatOns
into harmonious relations. The Liberal League
which has recently been organized is modelled
after tho Primrose League. 1t also admits
women to membership as well as men, and is
governed by corresponding central head
quarters.
Tho work done by these English leagues is
not confined TO election periods. Originally
the purpose Of the organizers. Sir Henry Drum
mond Wolf and Lord Randolph Churchill, was
tho enlistment Of volunteer canvasscrs to aid
in the registration Of voters and the polling Of
full party vote. At the end Of the first year,
when there were 100000 knights, danes and
associates in good standing, there was a net
work Of Conservative clubs throughout Eng
land constantly employed in educating voters
and in influencing public opinion. The league
now has q very large membership with
treasury that is never empty, notwithstand-
ing the enormous amount OF printing
done in tho circulation of popular
tracts and pamphlets. The habitations

Conservative speakers are employed to visit
the habitations and to discuss questions of the
day. When information is needed In any
locality on Home Rule or any other great topic
IL is supplied from headquarters in tracts writ

Is undertaking similar work by means Of corc-
spending agencies.
The Primrose League has accomplished dur
ing five years a vast deal of work and has
greatly strengthened the Conservative party.

MONEY! AND BUSINESS.

The bank reserves increase, while bread
stuns and stocks are both lower. Provisions,
coffee, cotton, oh and the minor metals have
advanced, copper 81 10, tin 80 and lead 20
cents per 100 pounds oil , II cents. coffee
half cent and cotton an eighth, lard - and
hogs 81 cents per 100 pounds But wheat
has declined 81, corn IL cents and oats
half cent during the week, and though most
Of the decline in stocks early in the week was
recovered, the average at the close was slightly
lower than the week before. The Treasury
did not interfere with the aggregate monetary
supply. increasing its deposits in banks by
50, $50, but adding nothing to its store Of
cash held. Some money still goes TO the Sodth
through increased Issues Of silver certificates,
but the Treasury has gained substantially the
same amount in gold. lcgai-tcndcrs and silver.
The performance naturally makes money on
call abundant, and the speculative markets arc
stimulated to the utmost, while the demand for
loans on time much exceeds the supply which
banks are willing to place in that way.
The setback in brcadstuTs results from the
scanty foreign demand at current prices. The
exports for the last reported week were only
245,G18 bushels wheat from Atlantic potts,
against ! ,292 .O9l for the same week last year,
and for the month Of November were only
$780, 1872 bushels wheat from all principal
ports, against S.2Ol .O29 for tho same month
last year. With some increase in exports Of
-four, the aggregate Of wheat and flour for five
months ending with November was equivalent
to only Gl,2O7,llO bushels wheat. against
G5,319, S32 for the same months last year. and
il the exports for the remaining seven months
should come up to last years. there would still
remain OF the estimated supply about
I2,SOO,OOO bushels unsOld in excess Of the
minimum stock. These facts arc more potent
in controlling prices abroad, and tho prices
hero except for the day, than any expansion
Of currency or activity in circulation, and SINH
lar reasoning has checked the advance in corn.
But the general tendency Of speculation in
other products is toward higher prices.
The stock market appears to be stagnating
abundant money does not lift it. nor largo
gains in gross earnings. nor increased divi-
dcnds declared by some companies and cx-
pected from others. nor tho settlement OF
threatening controversies. 1t is true that,
after excepting the Pacific and cOal-carrying
roads. the net earnings Of forty other COM
panies amounted to less in October than in tho
Same month last year. notwithstanding the
great and general increase in gross earnings.
But other facts seem TO be Of larger import
